Athena’s POV

I hurried to the prison with the guards following closely behind me.I had just heard that Raven was locked up for fighting.

My hands balled into fists as I thought about it. It was Paige who ordered her arrest.

That name alone made my blood boil. That girl just couldn’t leave me or my family alone. I turned a sharp corner and pushed the heavy door open. The prison sat behind the main house, guarded by two warriors. They bowed when they saw me.

“Lady Athena,” one of them said quickly, standing straight.

“Open the door,” I ordered, my voice firm.

“Yes, ma’am.”

The heavy iron door creaked open, and I stepped into the dark, damp hallway of the prison. Raven was sitting on a cold bench, her hands wrapped around her knees.

“Raven!” I called.

Her head snapped up amd I saw her eyes were red. “Athena!” she cried.

I rushed to her cell. “Open it. Now,” I said to the guard beside me.

“Right away, Lady Athena.”he said without hesitation.

The cell door clicked, and I stepped inside to

    Paige's POVI was pissed. Even though Athena had forgiven me and I didn’t get executed, the Alpha still said I had to be punished.I was now stuck patrolling the pack borders with a bunch of guards I didn’t know and didn’t even want to know. I had never trained for this. I was not built to lead not guard anything. And yet, here I was, putting on thick black pants, a matching jacket, and heavy boots like some soldier.I pulled the zipper up roughly and tied my hair back into a high ponytail. I slammed my bedroom door behind me and walked fast through the hall, ignoring everyone. This was bullshit. Total bullshit.The wind hit my face as I stepped out of the pack house and got to the border.Tony, the patrol leader, was already waiting near the wooden shed by the edge of the forest. He was tall and broad-shouldered with a beard that looked like it hadn’t been trimmed in weeks. He had a clipboard in his hand and a half-eaten granola bar in the other.“You’re late,” Tony said, not even lo

    Paige’s POVI watched them leave. Athena walked proudly beside Travis, her chin high like she had won something. I stayed on my knees, shaking all over. My heart thudded in my chest like it wanted to break out.My lips trembled as I pressed my hands to the cold stone floor. I had no idea Travis had been behind me the whole time and he had heard everything.When he spoke, I almost jumped out of my skin. “Bring me evidence Athena killed Michael,” Travis said coldly. “Or be charged for treason.”His voice was like ice.I slowly turned my head and looked up at him and his eyes were blazing. His jaw was tight.“Treason,” I whispered, my throat dry.“You know what that means, Paige,” he said, stepping closer. “Punishment is death… or banishment. You have two days.”Then he turned and walked away, his steps loud and final.My chest tightened and my hands shook harder. Death or banishment. I couldn’t survive either one. I needed help.Without wasting a second, I jumped to my feet and ran. My

    Paige's POVI had been patiently waiting for the full moon. Arrow and I had a perfect plan.On the night of the full moon, when everyone in the pack would be busy celebrating, dancing, and howling in joy he would murder Athena.He promised it would be quick and clean and I trusted him. He hated Athena just as much as I did. All I had to do was stay low, out of sight and keep myself invisible.I avoided everyone at the pack house. I didn’t eat in the dining room or hang around the halls. I didn’t want to risk anyone noticing me or asking questions that might raise suspicion until then.No one could know what was coming and I was glad the full moon was just a few days away.It was evening and I decided to go downtown. There was a private pub near the edge of town. It was dark and quiet, and no one from the pack usually went there.The streets were cold so I wore a big hoodie and jeans ignoring everyone who greeted me until I heard laughter in front of me.I turned slightly and saw a grou

    Paige’s POVI walked into the warehouse. It was dark and cold inside. The air smelled like smoke and old metal. Pieces of broken chairs and smashed crates were on the floor. I wore all black; boots, jacket, gloves and my heart was beating fast, but my face stayed calm.Arrow was fuming. He threw a glass bottle against the wall. Another crate went flying and his hands were clenched into fists, knuckles white, chest rising and falling with each deep breath. I stood at the entrance, watching him."Arrow," I called gently. He stopped and turned slowly, his face tight with pain and rage."You fucking failed," I said. His jaw tightened and looked away."I lost Night and Poison," he said, voice low and rough. "They're gone."My heart ached too. Night and Poison were my brothers too even though none of use were related by blood, just like arrow."It was supposed to be Athena," I said quietly. "She was the target."Arrow picked up a chair and threw it across the room. It hit the wall and broke

    Travis’s POVI sat with Matthew and Marcus deep in thought. The room was quiet and the single bulb above us was swinging slightly. I leaned forward, resting my arms on the table focused.“I need everything on the Triangle Gang,” I said, seriously. “Everything you know.”Matthew looked at me and nodded slowly. His face was calm, but I could see the worry in his eyes. “The Triangle Gang,” he said, “was also called the Wolf Gang. They were the most dangerous gang around eight years ago, they went underground and no one has heard from them again. I thought they were gone for good and finished.”“Well,” I said, voice sharp, “they're not finished. They tried to murder me and Athena.”Marcus frowned. “The issue is we have no lead and we don’t know why or what their purpose was or if they were targeting you or Athena?”I shook my head. I had thought about it so many times, but nothing came to mind. Athena was good and kind and also poor so why would a deadly gang go after her?“They must know
